Operation and Maintenance
Pellet boiler MiniQ
MANUAL FOR EcoTec MiniQ WITH MAX. OUTPUT 20/25 kW
Mini Q är en laddpanna. Pannan används i system
med en ackumulatortank.
När solpaneler ansluts, görs det mot en ackumulator-
tank, där det av sol eller pelletspannan uppvärmda
vattnet lagras.
Även om solpaneler inte används i systemet skall
laddpannan som förser ackumulatortanken ha en
liten vattenvolym så att vattnet snabbt värms upp
innan det lagras i ackumulatortanken.
EcoTec Mini Q innehåller bara ca. 55 liter vatten vilket
betyder att det blir små förluster vid effektstillestånd.
Den kompakta pannan är bara ca 1 meter hög,
vilket gör den mycket lättskött. Pannkonstruk-
tionen gör att pannan har en hög verkningsgrad
som ger en bra bränsleekonomi.
Tillsammans med BioLine 20 eller 25, som är en
av marknadens bästa och mest köpta brännare är
detta en panna som:
• är mycket prisvärd
• är kompakt och enkel att sköta
• har en hög verkningsgrad som ger en
god bränsleekonomi.
• kräver minimalt underhåll.
Pannan är EN303-5 testad och godkänd av SP
med en pannverkningsgrad på XX%.
Extrautrustning:.
• Asksug EcoVac Mini
• Draglucka beroende på skorstensdrag.
• Förråd för pellets med matarskruv

MiniQ is a charging boiler. It is used in systems
with an accumulator tank.
The charging boiler has a small water capacity, so
that the water can be heated up rapidly before
being stored in the accumulator tank.
EcoTec MiniQ holds just 55 litres of water, ensur-
ing minimal losses during downtime.

User information:
The boiler
An EcoTec MiniQ is designed for firing with pellets.
Wood burning is not possible due to the design of
the boiler.
Combustion
The combustion process in the boiler is
controlled by an external pellet burner.
The burner must be installed by an au-
thorised installation engineer, to ensure
optimum set-up of the combustion
process. A correctly set-up burner yields
better economy and less impact on the
environment.
See the burner manual for installation,
setting and maintenance information.
Convection
The flue gases in the boiler are cooled
by the tubes running vertically down
into the firebox, after which they pass
out via the flue pipe.

Soot removal
Your boiler must be regularly cleared of soot, at
least once a quarter or more often depending
on how much it is used. To clear the soot, insert
the accompanying flue brush into the tubes
and use it to scrape off all the soot. Brush soot
off the boiler walls and any other areas where
it may accumulate. Finish by emptying the ash
drawer into a non-flammable container.
Dismantling, scrapping
Your boiler will last for many years, but please
follow applicable regulations when the time
comes for dismantling and scrapping.

INSTALLATION INFORMATION
The boiler room
The boiler room must comply with applicable building
standards. Ensure a good air supply by having an air
inlet equivalent in size to the flue pipe area.
Chimney
EcoTec MiniQ has a flue pipe connection to the rear. Dif-
fering chimney heights and types, wind and position may
affect its drawing capacity. You should have a vacuum of
10-15 Pa in the boiler to achieve a good function. The
chimney should be at least 120 mm in diameter. The flue
pipe connection must have a damper.
Connection
Pipe installation must be carried out in accordance
with applicable heating and hot-water standards.
Flue pipe connection for damper, to the
rear.
Item no. for damper (optional): 1234-00
Flue pipe connection for damper,
upwards (optional).
Item no. for pipe: 8701-00
Item no. for damper: 1234-00
Temp. sensor for con-
trolling charging units
in submerged pipes
together with sensors for
thermometers and oper-
ating temperature.

Filling
The most suitable method of filling is through
a charging pipe fixed to a connecting pipe that
flows into the boiler. If necessary, the boiler can
be filled by connecting a hose to the filling point
on the boiler. Once the system has been filled, it
must be vented.
Expansion vessel
The boiler must always be connected to an expan-
sion vessel. With an open system, the volume
must be 5% of the system volume, and with a
sealed system, 10%.
Safety valve
The system must always be fitted with a safety
valve, the pressure must not exceed 1.5 bar.
Positioning
The boiler must be positioned on a stable surface;
remember that one side must be accessible for
servicing and soot removal. The boiler must be
horizontal.
Ventilation
Recommendation: Connect the boiler’s riser pipe
to an automatic ventilating valve.
